Xiumin
Xiumin
What’s your impression on China?
Men’s Style: What type of men do you think have the most charm? What type of women are the most attractive?
Xiumin: Disregarding gender, I respect those with outstanding charms on the outside~ It is simply who has the ability to attract others more themselves.
Men’s Style: In the members, is there anyone’s album image you’re envious of or would like to try?
Xiumin: Before being envious of anyone else’s images, I am busier taking care of what I am responsible for in the group. In my opinion, each of the images the members have taken on in this album suit them each very well, so we’re all pretty satisfied!
Men’s Style: The members all call you “baozi”, please try using food to describe the others members too.
Xiumin: Kris - pork legs, Lu Han - tofu, Lay - carbonara spaghetti, Chen - Americano, Tao - fried chicken…..
Men’s Style: Even though you’re EXO’s dage you have a baby face. So have you ever been “bullied” because of your baby face?
Xiumin: On first impression, most people think that I’m younger than them so they take advantage of me but after talking for a while and asking about age, and after they know about my age, they’re all get quite shocked, then they’re respectful towards me~ These sort of situations come up quite often~ So now it doesn’t really bother me anymore~ Haha ^^ …………
Men’s Style: Up until now, what’s the hardest Chinese phrase that you’ve learnt?
Xiumin: To be honest, there hasn’t been one particular phrase that’s difficult. But having learnt Chinese, opening your mouth to actually speak it has been difficult. I have the determination but I haven’t learn it properly so I’m kind of trying to figure out what it is exactly about myself that’s not doing it……
Men’s Style: You’ve come to China quite a number of times, what’s the biggest feeling and impression you’ve had? What part of China do you like the most?
Xiumin: Each and every different realm of China is huge! I also find it quite abundant…….. and also makes me feel quite at ease. Furthermore, China’s dishes are all really yummy as well as unique! So, to be honest, if it’s possible, I would like to study abroad in China and learn Chinese well!
Men’s Style: What makes you happiest?
Xiumin: Is there really a need to say? ( ? The interviewer showed an expression where he didn’t really understand ^^ Do you understand? ) Obviously it’s when I’m on stage that I’m the most, most, most happiest!
Speed Questions
Q: What do you think is needed to be a charismatic man?
A: What everyone asks for is different. I don’t think charisma can me “made” but it’s something natural. So I think that if there’s something that you want to do, do it! That’s the best way.
Q: When you are with the other EXO members, what is the topic most talked about?
A: Just as each day is different, our topics are also different. Aside from our schedule, everything else just flows with our feelings, the conversations are always different
Q: In the short term, what is the dream you would most want to realise?
A: If it were possible, I want to try making coffee credentials~
Q: When it comes to travelling, other than your family and parents, if you have to pick a member from the group, who would you most want to go with? What kind of place would you most like to go to?
A: Depending on where I choose to go, the member that I choose to go with will also be different. First of all, the first place that I thought of as well as the place that I want to go to the most is England, I want to go with Lu Han. The reason is simple, we want to personally see a football match with our own two eyes~~
Q: What type of men do you find easiest to admire?
A: This question is quite had to answer. We’re not talking about women, but about men, so I’ve never really thought about it, it’s quite awkward!
Q: Please say something to the fans and readers of this issue!
A: Hello everyone! I am EXO’s Xiumin! This year, because of the support and love from the fans, we, EXO, have had a lot of joyful occasions. Even though work has gotten even more busy, because of this we are able to spend each day even happier. I don’t know whether it’s possible for us to be so lucky and so happy.

CHEN: I don’t know if I’m the best at Chinese (reporter: It really has the feel of China ^^), but to be honest, I always put in my best effort practicing to prounounce words the way the Chinese members do, if I get the pronounciation or tones wrong, it becomes something with a different meaning, so I am very careful when I speak in Chinese. So, I am particularly concerned with the pronounciation.
